While having lunch with @NamiSparrow back in July, we realized we both have a lot of opinions about Disney and how they choose to represent minorities. So we reached out to our friends @MuseAndDionysus and Erika a la Mode to have a long discussion about the different racist parts of Disney.
Please keep in mind that this video will contain discussion of racism, and racist triggers, sexism, and racism and where they intersect, and will also contain spoilers. Please also keep in mind that while we are discussing this, we are not calling for a boycott or saying anything bad about all of us that consume these movies. However, realizing where representation fails and can be downright racist is essential to doing better in the future.
This video features the lovely opinions and thoughts of:
